This is it, for me. It just wasn't fun to play for long periods of time when I've got a couple of Music Man guitars, a Les Paul, etc sitting right next to it.
Put this technology in a guitar serious guitarists would want to buy even without the modeling tech, and they'd sell every one of them. I mean, the 'standard' is what, $800? So let's say it's $500 in technology...just add that to the price of a really nice guitar, and I think lots of people would pay the premium.
